Letter to the editor: Where's Trump's wall?

Well, it’s been six months, and I just wanted to check in on the emergency at the border. Are the troops stationed there safe and well supplied and staying clear of harm’s way? No casualties, I hope, from the “invasion” of women, children and infants.

I’m just asking because it has been close to four months since I have heard President Trump mention the matter. His own party for two years denied him his boondoggle wall. He then bypasses Congress and its purse strings by declaring an emergency and steals money from the military budget he claims is his top priority.

Close to three years in and very little wall built. Don’t tell his followers that, though. They think it’s already built.
